The path is called Startrail and leads to the Church of Pilis and is similar to the stations of Christ, but in this case it is not about what happened to Him during his last way, but we meet the most important figures of Hungarian history, their figures are carved into wood.
Why was the church built at this place?
Learn about the only Hungarian monastic order: the Paulians! Founded by Ozseb 800 years ago, who gathered the hermits of this area and created a religious community, which is still active nowadays.
Where is the Holy Crown of Hungary now and why is it still so imprtant?

Dobogoko
Driving to the second highest peak of Pilis mountain range – a popular hiking spot among Budapesteans. First we visit the „Roger” viewpoint, which allows to see 20-40 km away in clear weather, then we walk the pilgrimage Way of Mary to her statue. Then on to a stone with runic writing and downhill to the Rock of Love and a rock said to be the Heart of Earth (in raw translation the name means Beating Rock). True or not, the place has a special vibe and in the past decades it has become a pilgrimage site for esoteric and Christians likewise, so shamanic drum sessions often take place here.
This leg of the tour is 6 km in total with about 250 m elevation first down then back up.
